The proposed ERF will replace the existing Energy from Waste (EfW) facility at the Edmonton EcoPark. i.i.iii The Planning Statement considers the planning issues surrounding the Application. It sets out the planning policy context for the Project, and addresses the issues raised in the light of relevant National Policy Statements (NPS), as well as relevant policies set out by the Mayor of London and the London Borough (LB) of Enfield. Application Site i.i.iv The Application Site, as shown on the Site Location Plans (A_0001 and A_0002 in the Book of Plans (AD02.01)), extends to approximately 22 hectares and is located wholly within the London Borough of Enfield (LB Enfield). The Application Site comprises the existing waste management site known as the Edmonton EcoPark where the permanent facilities would be located, part of Ardra Road, land around the existing water pumping station at Ardra Road, Deephams Farm Road, part of Lee Park Way and land to the west of the River Lee Navigation, and land to the north of Advent Way and east of the River Lee Navigation (part of which would form the Temporary Laydown Area and new Lee Park Way access road). The post code for the Edmonton EcoPark is N18 3AG and the grid reference is TQ 35750 92860. i.i.v The Application Site includes all land required to deliver the Project. This includes land that would be required temporarily to facilitate the development. i.i.vi Both the Application Site and the Edmonton EcoPark (existing and proposed) are shown on Plan A_0003 and A_0004 contained within the Book of Plans (AD02.01). Throughout this report references to the Application Site refer to the proposed extent of the Project works, and Edmonton EcoPark refers to the operational site. Upon completion of the Project the operational site would consist of the Edmonton EcoPark and additional land required to provide new access arrangements and for a water pumping station adjacent to the Deephams Sewage Treatment Works outflow channel. Page 1 AD05.02 | Issue | October 2015 | Arup North London Waste Authority North London Heat and Power Project Planning Statement The Project i.i.vii The Project would replace the existing EfW facility at Edmonton EcoPark, which is expected to cease operations in around 2025, with a new and more efficient ERF which would produce energy from residual waste, and associated development, including temporary works required to facilitate construction, demolition and commissioning. The proposed ERF would surpass the requirement under the Waste Framework Directive (Directive 2008/98/EC) to achieve an efficiency rating in excess of the prescribed level, and would therefore be classified as a waste recovery operation rather than disposal. i.i.viii The main features of the Project once the proposed ERF and permanent associated works are constructed and the existing EfW facility is demolished are set out in the Book of Plans (AD02.01) and comprise: a. a northern area of the Edmonton EcoPark accommodating the proposed ERF; b. a southern area of the Edmonton EcoPark accommodating the RRF and a visitor, community and education centre with offices and a base for the Edmonton Sea Cadets (‘EcoPark House’); c. a central space, where the existing EfW facility is currently located, which would be available for future waste-related development; d. a new landscape area along the edge with the River Lee Navigation; and e. new northern and eastern Edmonton EcoPark access points. i.i.ix During construction there is a need to accommodate a Temporary Laydown Area outside of the future operational site because of space constraints. This would be used to provide parking and accommodation for temporary staff (offices, staff welfare facilities), storage and fabrication areas, and associated access and utilities. i.i.x Schedule 1 of the draft DCO (AD03.01) sets out the authorised development and the works are shown in the Book of Plans (AD02.01), supplemented by Illustrative Plans (included in the Design Code Principles, AD02.02) that set out the indicative form and location of buildings, structures, plant and equipment, in line with the limits of deviation established by the draft DCO (AD03.01). Planning history i.i.xi The existing EfW facility was commissioned in 1971, and has served the North London area for almost 45 years. Since then, the site has seen the development of a number of additional waste facilities, becoming the Edmonton EcoPark in the late 2000s. i.i.xii The Edmonton EcoPark has been subject to a number of operational planning applications in the past 15 years, including permissions granted for the creation of an in-vessel composting (IVC) facility and maturation area in 2004, and construction of a waste transfer station in 2005. Page 2 AD05.02 | Issue | October 2015 | Arup North London Waste Authority North London Heat and Power Project Planning Statement i.i.xiii There are a number of extant planning permissions and major development proposals in the area surrounding Edmonton EcoPark, which have been taken into consideration in developing the Project. These are detailed in Section 3 of this Planning Statement. Scheme development i.i.xiv The proposed ERF will replace the existing EfW facility which is expected to reach the end of it operational life by around 2025. i.i.xv The strategic basis for the Applicant’s decisions is the North London Joint Waste Management Strategy1 which covers the period 2004 to 2020. This strategy contains objectives and targets which set out the need to reduce the amount of waste sent from the north London area to landfill, and targets for increasing recycling in the area to 50 per cent by 2020. i.i.xvi In order to determine the most appropriate way to meet the requirements for future residual waste management the Applicant undertook assessments relating to the site selection and technology solution to be pursued for future waste management in the north London area. The selection of thermal technology with advanced moving grate is supported by the technological assessments and is consistent with planning policy. The site selection was based on site availability and suitability. Legislative and policy framework i.i.xvii National Policy Statements (NPS) will be the primary consideration for the Secretary of State (SoS) in making their decision regarding this application. Overarching National Policy Statement for Energy (NPS EN-1) (DECC, 2011)2 and National Policy Statement for Renewable Energy Infrastructure (NPS EN-3) (DECC, 2011)3 set out the policy framework for the Application, outlining objectives which must be achieved and setting out principles against which the application will be assessed by the decision maker.

  • 'Ungovernable'? Financialisation and the Governance Of
    Governing the ‘ungovernable’? Financialisation and the governance of transport infrastructure in the London ‘global city-region’ February 2018 Peter O’Briena* Andy Pikea and John Tomaneyb aCentre for Urban and Regional Development Studies (CURDS), Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK NE1 7RU. Email: peter.o’[email protected]; [email protected] bBartlett School of Planning, University College London, Bartlett School of Planning, University College London, 620 Central House, 14 Upper Woburn Place, London, UK WC1H 0NN. Email: [email protected] *Corresponding author 1 Abstract The governance of infrastructure funding and financing at the city-region scale is a critical aspect of the continued search for mechanisms to channel investment into the urban landscape. In the context of the global financial crisis, austerity and uneven growth, national, sub-national and local state actors are being compelled to adopt the increasingly speculative activities of urban entrepreneurialism to attract new capital, develop ‘innovative’ financial instruments and models, and establish new or reform existing institutional arrangements for urban infrastructure governance. Amidst concerns about the claimed ‘ungovernability’ of ‘global’ cities and city-regions, governing urban infrastructure funding and financing has become an acute issue. Infrastructure renewal and development are interpreted as integral to urban growth, especially to underpin the size and scale of large cities and their significant contributions within national economies. Yet, oovercoming fragmented local jurisdictions to improve the governance and economic, social and environmental development of major metropolitan areas remains a challenge. The complex, and sometimes conflicting and contested inter-relationships at stake raise important questions about the role of the state in wrestling with entrepreneurial and managerialist governance imperatives.

Our services have never been better. This strategy will be the foundation of still greater improvements as we start to develop and implement the next generation of waste services that will treat waste as a resource and will minimise environmental impacts, particularly those which may contribute to climate change. Above all we will ensure a balanced approach, with value for money on behalf of local council tax payers being essential if waste is truly to be managed in the best interests of North London. This work, however, will need everyone to play their part – all residents, all businesses, all local groups and organisations, and all public services must work to minimise the amount of waste we produce and maximise the amount we recycle and compost. I hope very much you will join us in this endeavour.

  • Delivering Urban Energy Infrastructure: the Capacity of Planning and Governance Networks in the Cases of Barcelona, Burlington, Lerwick, London, and Toronto
    Delivering urban energy infrastructure: the capacity of planning and governance networks in the cases of Barcelona, Burlington, Lerwick, London, and Toronto Sarah E Cary University College London Research Degree: PhD, the Bartlett School of Planning 1 Declaration I, Sarah E Cary, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 Abstract District heating and cooling (DHC) systems are a sound solution to environmental, energy security, climate change, and fuel poverty concerns in cities. As an environmental policy goal not fully controlled by government and subject to complex multi-actor negotiations, building DHC can be understood as requiring network governance patterns of behaviour. This thesis investigates the role of planning in delivering DHC, employing a conceptual framework of Actor-Centered Institutionalism to unravel the relationships between industry, government, and citizen organizations in governance networks. It contributes to a growing area of study on the intersection of urban development, energy infrastructure, and environmental policy goals. It responds to calls for further practical research on governance patterns of behaviour, applying a recognised network governance approach to the analysis of five international case studies. It also investigates the weight of institutional context and the purported connection between network interaction characteristics and policy outcomes. The research categorises a range of potential roles for planning organisations and planning interventions in governance networks for DHC. The comparative analysis suggests that planning organisations rarely negotiate for DHC but that planning interventions are regularly used to initiate governance networks for DHC and to shape negotiations by other actors.

  • Improving Delivery of London's Infrastructure
    IMPROVING DELIVERY OF LONDON’S INFRASTRUCTURE 1. INTRODUCTION IMPROVING DELIVERY OF LONDON’S INFRASTRUCTURE PAGE 1 The UK is home to world-class infrastructure providers, developers, engineers and architects. At home and overseas they are at the forefront of delivering large-scale innovative infrastructure projects. London has seen the benefits of this expertise across many projects. Crossrail, the biggest construction project in Europe, is on track to deliver on time and on budget. London has the technology experts and entrepreneurs to put London at the forefront of innovative delivery and use of infrastructure. With political will we can ensure projects are prioritised and pushed forward – the Olympic Park being the perfect example of what can be achieved with virtually unanimous political support. An unmovable deadline also helped. But on many other occasions infrastructure has not been delivered to the same high standards. Fragmented and nationalised siloes, including the different legislation, regulations, planning periods and organisations that manage the delivery of London’s infrastructure have not created an environment conducive to optimal infrastructure delivery. For example, developers and businesses we have consulted can cite many projects that have been held up because of problems connecting them to utilities. It can take an incredibly long time to gain political support for large-scale projects. Crossrail, for example, was first proposed in the 1940s, officially advanced in the 1970s and 80s, cancelled in the 1990s, before being reinstated in the early 2000s – although without any funding commitment until later that decade. 1. INTRODUCTION IMPROVING DELIVERY OF LONDON’S INFRASTRUCTURE PAGE 2 There is a real need for clear long-terms plans that have cross party support.
